Application for NYC Premise license & FFL01 & C&R

I previously possessed a NYC Premise license as well as a NYC Rifle & Shotgun permit but around late 1999 early 2000 circumstances caused me to give both of them up. I currently possess six non-resident concealed carry permits and re-acquired my NYC Rifle & Shotgun permit:

Utah (Sent 03/10/07 Received 07/26/07) 139 days or 4 months, 17 days (+ end date)New Hampshire (Sent 08/06/07 Received 08/31/07) 26 days (+ end date)Virginia (Sent 08/16/07 Received 09/28/07) 44 days or 1 month, 13 days (+ end date)Connecticut (Sent 08/16/07 Received 09/28/07) 44 days or 1 month 13 days (+ end date)Florida (Sent 08/16/07 Received 10/26/07) 72 days or 2 months, 11 days (+ end date)Maine (Sent 08/16/07 Received 12/31/07) 138 days or 4 months, 16 days (+ end date)
&NYC Rifle & Shotgun Permit (Applied 07/31/07 Received 03/03/08) 217 days or 7 months, 4 days (+ end date)

My company Cavalier Knight LLC is registered as a federal contractor within CCR and I also deal in Military, Law Enforcement tactical gear and civilian firearms accessories. As of 05/21/10 i'm in final determination status to become a SBA Certified HUBZone business.

On 05/03/10 I submitted my NYC Premise Pistol License application and on 05/04/10 via USPS Express mail sent in my applications for my BATFE C&R and FFL 01 (Wholesale Dealer a person, firm or corporation that sells or distributes pistols, revolvers or ammunition only to licensed dealers, law enforcement or government agencies). Including copies to the NYC Police Commissioner.

The BATFE applications arrived on 05/05/10 and the payments were withdrawn from my debit account on 05/07/10.

On 05/21/10 I received a letter from the NYPD dated 05/19/10 in reference to scheduling an appointment to bring in additional documentation.

The original letter is not printed clearly so I recreated it and made it available for your review here:LINK

I'll try to keep this updated as I progress. Thank you.

Reason: Updated NYC Term For Wholesale Dealer

I'm sure some of you are curious to other states. I live in Michigan and am founder/CEO of a firearm and ammunition manufacturing company. It holds a type 07 FFL and is a Class 2 SOT taxpayer. My company manufactures ammunition, machine guns, and silencers. Here's my list:

07 FFL received in 21 calendar days after mailing out (includes transit time)
Class 2 SOT check cashed 3 days after mailing (cashed 9/11 of all days; my mom's birthday)

I inquired about a possible future business carry license because if my FFL 01 is approved as a wholesale dealer I will then apply for my Class 3 SOT.

Which means I will have access to NFA items and will present NFA items to various law enforcement agencies requiring me to travel with firearms including fully automatic weapons.

My investigator stated that he doesn't see an issue with approval of my Premise license but he will also look into my "qualifying" for a Business Carry License based upon the nature of my intended FFL business. I was instructed to wait 4 to 6 weeks for a response letter.

I'm not holding my breath but I'll report back when I hear from the BATFE and/or NYPD. I thank all of you for your support.

Today I received a call from the BATFE regarding my C&R. They wanted to know if I wanted to use my personal name or business on my C&R. He stated that my background has cleared and he will submit both my C&R & FFL01 at the same time to the New York office.

C&R is a personal collection FFL. A non-human cannot hold a type 03 FFL. Your business name cannot be on the C&R. It's a collector license, not a business FFL license. You can deal in C&R weapons with your 01 FFL. A C&R is only for personal collection, not business.
